Configuring HDLC compression
The STAC-LZ compression compresses the payload of packets on an HDLC link. Because it does not rely on history packet information, it can achieve a smaller compression ratio. The STAC-LZ compression increases data transmission efficiency on low-speed links, saves network bandwidth, and reduces network load.
To configure HDLC compression:
Step | Command | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
1. Enter system view. | system-view | N/A |
2. Enter interface view. | interface interface-type interface-number | N/A |
3. Enable HDLC encapsulation on the interface. | link-protocol hdlc | PPP by default. |
4. Enable HDLC compression. | hdlc compression stac | By default, HDLC links do not support compression. |
